mail() function still does not work.

[Moezzie]

I did som searching on the forum and found that alot of people had problems with there mail() functions. So do I.

I just got my accout today and upgraded my php version to intermediate to uesr the mail() and include functions. I got the confirmation mails and i thought everything was fixed.
Thought it tells me that it should work, it doesnt.

I just uploaded the most basic php mailscript and tried it out and get this message:
Warning: mail() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/moezzie/public_html/sendmail.php on line 3


Do i have to enable the function in my cPanel somehow or should it work right away?

This is pretty much all there is in my file:

mail("myemail@somehost.com","hello", "it worked!");

I really dont know what the problem is so im just gonna lte you guys figure this one out.
Thanks!

I believe if you check the confirmation email all it says is that your request has been accepted - it's still going to take a bit to update (the server runs those apps every hour, so if it gets a bit behind, it should be 3 hours at most).

If you've already waited that, I apologize, and something really _is_ wrong. Otherwise, sit tight, and we'll see if it gets fixed the next time the server fixes the accounts with accepted applications

Just give it a bit of a wait like livewire says

um I just got both the confirmation e-mail and the e-mail saying the version has changed but i get the same error as the thread starter, any ideas?

my cPanel user name: alcatar, subdomain/domain:alcatar.pcriot.com, and hosting package: adfree

I have the same problem as Moezzie.

It´s already been about 12 hours since I got the confirmation mail saying that upgrade had been successful......... Please help!

So it might still take some time after you get the confirmation e-mail saying that your account has been upgraded? My account management panel says that I have the intermediate version and I have received e-mails confirming this as well; according to that I should be able to use the mail() function. Is there anything else I need to do, or is it in fact a matter of time?
